- Timing restriction: no opening, closing or triggering pending orders within 5 minutes before / 5 minutes after a high-impact news event (10-minute window). Applies even with the add-on.
- Optional Hold Through News (15% Add-On): allows positions opened outside the 10-minute window to be held through high-impact events without breaching the account.
The account may be terminated after 3 consecutive months of inactivity.
The 30-day inactivity period begins on the day the account is purchased, not from last activity. If no trades are placed within this period, the account is automatically failed for inactivity and permanently closed (no restoration). Applies to Challenge and Funded accounts.
